"Over the next few days it will become painfully clear that the government deliberately shut down the Westminster spy case to avoid disrupting UK/China relations - an allegation so incendiary that I almost cant believe Im writing it. Watch this space for more"

"Now its clear: China hawks were right all along. No hubris from me here. Weve been perpetually thrown under the bus for the past X years. Its been a slog. I hope we are finally getting to a better place on China policy"

"Told you. If the Collins evidence when published stayed close to the language of the National Security Strategy 2025 then it will prove: a) that the Sunday Times story on 5th October was correct b) that blaming the previous Government was a red herring"

"Yesterday Starmer blamed the Conservatives for the collapse of the #WestminsterSpy trial saying the Tories didnt see China as a threat at the time. Whats this then From XX April 2024 where the Security Minister @TomTugendhat couldnt have been clearer"

"Feel like Ive been on the phone to half of Fleet St this week. To save time here are some unanswered questions re: #SpyScandal which would repay investigation: X. Which minister decided not to provide evidence to the CPS - the decision which collapsed the case CPS was asking for months. Inconceivable that ministers were unaware. X. Who provided the incorrect legal advice that a formal threat designation would be required for evidence to be provided to the CPS Or was this just made up X. What discussions took place with Beijing officials before the case was dropped We know the Chinese"

"OK this is the nub Pars from XX Feb 2025 and the X August 2025 statements excerpted. 👇 Are we expected to believe the Deputy National Security Advisor just decided to included these two POLITICAL statements about the CURRENT government's policy with no political input"

"Let me try. Willy waving cockup and coverup: the short story of the collapsed China spy trial: A spy trial that would have pissed off China because a) the old laws used to prosecute require the Govt to say undiplomatic stuff about Beijing and b) Xis right-hand man was involved has collapsed because of a lack of evidence. Neither the Crown Prosecution Service nor Government seemed to want it to go ahead but neither can admit it. Government has tied itself in knots in an attempt to deny this resulting in the PM claiming the official responsible for saying the undiplomatic stuff to court was"

"Whoa this is huge. Times reports on the front page that @GOVUK gave assurances over their mega-embassy application. Such assurances according to UK planning law would be unlawful. Strong ground for the @StopTheEmbassy Judicial Review"

"People have short memories. Wasn't that long ago that @UKLabour were calling out China's genocide against #Uyghurs with Tories opposing. Tempting to make this about party. But @RhonddaBryant @SKinnock @ShabanaMahmood @rushanaraali @lisanandy @patmcfaddenmp @SarahChampionMP to name just a few are very aware of the threat from Beijing and won't be happy today. This is the fault of a small cabal of officials/ SPADs egged on by the Treasury and Foreign Office who have always been the block on a realistic policy towards China. Yes the Government has an awful approach to China at the moment. Yes"

"Now we know. As predicted X weeks ago: The Westminster spy case was dropped because conviction required the UK to evidence that China met the enemy threshold for the purposes of the Official Secrets Act. Anyone involved in this travesty should be looking for a new job"
